ALBION WIN LG PERFORMANCE OF WEEK AWARD

Brighton and Hove Albion have won the LG Performance of the Week Award for their 5-0 victory against Norwich City at the Amex last weekend.

Glenn Murray’s hat-trick and second-half goals from Lewis Dunk and Anthony Knockaert secured all three points for the Seagulls, as Chris Hughton’s team overcame one of their promotion rivals.

A five-man panel from the League Managers Association, which included Howard Wilkinson, Sir Alex Ferguson, Joe Royle, Dave Bassett and Barry Fry, chose Albion’s triumph over the Canaries as the stand-out performance.
